In You Xiao Chan's opinion, Xie Tian's talent was not bad, but because of his inferior inheritance, he had lost his bright future.
Even if the You Family had countless cultivation methods, it was only ten days away from the Body Sect. How could he improve by leaps and bounds in such a short time?
Thus, she was not very happy when she found out that Xie Tian had fought two Void Realm Paragons to a draw and became fourth in the Void Realm.
After casually obtaining the follower quota, Xie Tian once again entered the Body Refining Pagoda to enrich himself. At this moment, he, who was determined to walk on the path of body refinement, was truly on the path, and his joy was indescribable.
Because of his extraordinary performance, the mockery and ridicule that Hu Tai and the other two received decreased by ninety-nine percent. The remaining ten percent caused them to cry. They were both taught by the same master, but why was the difference between them so great?
"Sigh, it would be great if he was taught by the same master."
Hu Tai sighed.
"Who could teach such a master?"
Hu Pi's chubby face trembled as he thought about how he had only shown the Liuhe Sky Pillar Fist to Xie Tian once.
"Let's go. Killing God gave us the spots to enter the Fan Pavilion. Don't waste it."
"Don't Killing God! Killing God! I've decided to recognize him as my senior brother!"
"You deceived your master!"
"Bring honor to your ancestors!"
“”
Time passed as You Xiao Chan nervously prepared. In the blink of an eye, four days had passed.
Xie Tian finally walked out of the Body Tempering Pagoda after storing all 14 levels of the cultivation technique in his head. He, who had gained a lot, was no longer happy and only had pressure on him.
He could not find a suitable Void Realm cultivation method for himself.
"There are over ten thousand Void Realm cultivation methods in the Body Refining Pagoda, and three hundred and nineteen peerless ones. I've tried all of them, and the body refining effect is about the same as forcefully absorbing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth!"
In fact, he had already guessed this. After all, the forbidden power was too heaven-defying. Cultivation methods that could control this power were rare, but he didn't expect it to be so rare that even the You Family did not have it.
"Only the Body Sect!"
Although he knew that the You Clan definitely had a better Emptiness Realm Cultivation Method, he didn't have the qualifications to read it. Secondly, even if he did, it would be useless. Thirdly, even if You Xiao Chan dared to make an exception and take care of him, he absolutely didn't want to accept this favor.
There were still a few days before they would depart for the Body Sect.
Over the past few days, Xie Tian had been practicing a killing technique of the You Family. It was called the Seven Slaughter Martial Art. Naturally, someone would report his progress to You Xiao Chan.
"Got it."
Knowing that Xie Tian had only managed to cross the threshold of the Seven Slaughter Martial Art six days ago, You Xiao Chan's mood darkened even further.
At this moment, even Xie Tian's talent, which she had once admired, had become something that could be made up for with diligence. That was because in the past six days, Xie Tian had not stopped cultivating for even a moment.
To be able to use the Six Heaven Pillar Fist so skillfully, it must be the result of hard work, You Xiao Chan thought.
Three days later, the day of departure.
Xie Tian, who had been hiding his true strength to the limit, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the calm and indifferent You Xiao Chan.
"This is a four-day trip. Cultivate well on the spirit boat. The Body Sect isn't as perfect as you think."
With that, You Xiao Chan flew onto the spirit boat, followed by a few You Family Elders with terrifying auras. Next came a dozen or so body refining experts, and finally, the twelve followers.
The followers were also divided into high and low levels. After the eight followers with high cultivation arrogantly boarded the spirit boat, it was the turn of the four Emptiness Realm followers.
Of the four, Xie Tian was the last to walk.
"The young miss is a gentle person. She's talking about you. Take care."
As soon as Xie Tian stepped onto the spirit boat, the person in front of him coldly tossed him these words and then swaggered off arrogantly.
"I really should cultivate well."
Thinking of the bumpy road ahead of him, Xie Tian felt even more anxious. He wanted nothing more than to enter the Body Sect and find his own path.
The spirit boat flew without any danger. Even though the You Family had declined, it was still one of the aristocratic families that guarded the northeastern region of the Yue Prefecture. No one dared to cause trouble.
Four days later, as he was cultivating, Xie Tian's heart stirred. He walked out of his cabin and onto the deck of the spirit boat.
A faintly discernible golden mountain peak that seemed to pierce through the heavens rushed towards him. Even though it was hundreds of thousands of miles away, it was still shocking.
"That Heaven-Breaking Peak is the Body Sect."
Because of Xie Tian's mediocre and indifferent tone, there was a trace of surprise in her voice. You Xiao Chan would never have imagined that Xie Tian would be able to sense the aura of the Heaven-Breaking Peak from hundreds of thousands of miles away.
"Greetings, Third Miss."
Xie Tian cupped his hands and bowed, then looked back at the Heaven-Breaking Peak.
In his eyes, the Heaven-Breaking Peak was him.
When he was young and frivolous, he had reached out to pluck the stars. When he climbed to the peak of the Sword Mound, he had thought that he had touched the stars of the Nine Heavens.
Only now did he realize how high the heavens were and how difficult the road was. Although he still had lofty aspirations, what supported them was no longer arrogance, but the faith that came from experiencing trials and tribulations.
"One day."
Leaving behind these words, Xie Tian turned and left.
"One day!"
You Xiao Chan repeated, her lips bitter. "Yes, one day you will reach the peak of your life through hard work. My You family will once again be able to dominate the Yue Prefecture. But how far away is that day?"
What was far was time, not distance. Hundreds of thousands of miles were traversed by the spirit boat in just six hours.
Standing at the foot of the peak, the intimidating aura was hundreds of times denser. Even someone with Xie Tian's temperament couldn't help being moved.
"Hundreds of thousands of years ago, Forefather Poshan came from the Endless North Sea carrying a golden mountain. He established himself in the Yue Prefecture as the Body Sect."
Xie Tian already knew that Forefather Poshan was the founder of the Physique Sect, but he didn't expect that this mountain, which spanned hundreds of thousands of miles, was carried by a human.
"No wonder this peak is incompatible with the surrounding mountains."
"This is the supreme existence of my Yue Prefecture, the Body Sect."
"I never thought that I would be able to personally visit this peak!"
Of the twelve attendants, eleven were prostrating on the ground, kissing the golden earth beneath their feet with tears in their eyes. Only Xie Tian raised his head high, his eyes filled with desire.
In the eyes of those who understood Xie Tian, this was the lofty sentiments of Ling Tian. But in the eyes of You Xiao Chan and the others, this was an arrogance that didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
"Haha, this king has waited for many days. Xiao Chan, you've finally arrived!"
An arrogant laugh rang out, causing everyone to restrain their emotions and solemnly face Zhong Huai as he flew over.
"Greetings, Your Highness." You Xiao Chan and the others bowed to greet him.
"Since we've come to the Body Sect, there is no need for seniority. We are all disciples of the Body Sect."
Zhong Huai laughed and casually swept his gaze around. Just as he was about to return it to You Xiao Chan's graceful figure, his gaze suddenly paused and stopped on Xie Tian.
"Why did you bring him here?"
You Xiao Chan was indifferent and said, "During the competition within the clan, Attendant Hu Lai obtained fourth place and became Xiao Chan's attendant."
"Hmph! Let's go, Xiao Chan. Follow me into the sect. I've met many new Daoists in the past few days. They are all worthy of your friendship."
You Xiao Chan smiled gratefully and then instructed, "Elders and Protectors, please return. You Da, bring them into the Body Sect. Do not act rashly."
"Yes!"
You Xiao Chan's status was illustrious, and she was a disciple of the sect. According to the rules, she was given an exquisite courtyard in the middle of the shabby mountain peak.
You Da led the eleven people into the courtyard. A servant had already been waiting for them and presented them with twelve interspatial pouches.
"We followed the young miss into the sect, and our status is equivalent to that of ordinary disciples of the Body Sect. These interspatial pouches contain the corresponding items."
As You Da spoke, his small eyes landed on Xie Tian.
"This isn't the You Clan. There are countless experts and geniuses here. Even if you think you have some skills, you better hide them well. Don't make a fool of yourself."
The group of people sneered. They didn't know that Xie Tian had only become a follower because of his pestering. They didn't think much of him.
They originally thought that their words would make Xie Tian feel guilty, but Xie Tian remained calm.
You Da's expression immediately darkened. He snorted and walked away with the housekeeper. After muttering to himself for a while, he swaggered off.
"Everyone, there are guest rooms in the courtyard. Please follow me."
The housekeeper had a flattering expression as he led everyone to their own guest rooms.
When it was finally Xie Tian's turn, the housekeeper smiled awkwardly. "Senior Martial Brother, I'm really sorry. The guest rooms in the courtyard are all full."
"Are there any other rooms?"
"Other than guest rooms, there are also rooms for us and the other servants."
Xie Tian nodded. Just as he was about to speak, the housekeeper smiled and said, "But the rooms are all full. Senior Martial Brother …"
Looking up at the shabby mountain peak, Xie Tian sighed. "Tell me where I can stay."
"Senior Martial Brother is an ordinary Emptiness Realm disciple. You can go down the mountain. That is where ordinary disciples live."
Seeing Xie Tian descend the mountain alone, You Da and the others were delighted.
"The Body Sect is a sacred sect. Miss is too soft-hearted. Otherwise, how could she allow such a lowly person to enter the sect?"
"We are all branch members of the You Clan and shoulder heavy responsibilities. The You Clan's glory cannot be lost to him!"
"I'm just afraid that he will not be obedient after he leaves the mountain and use the You Clan's name to cause trouble. Sigh, this name …"
The expressionless You Da sneered. "It doesn't matter. With his ability, he doesn't have the qualifications to be arrogant in the Body Sect."
